(Fox News) – Over the past couple of weeks, New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees has faced intense scrutiny and pushback following his involvement with the ‘Bring Your Bible to School Day’ Event. Brees became the target of left-leaning media outlets after he partnered with Focus on the Family, a group that values the traditional family structure, to create the encouraging video.

Meadows along with 19 other members of Congress wrote and signed a letter in support of Brees writing: “Americans across the country support your promotion of Bring Your Bible to School Day.” “Drew Brees has backers in Congress,” Banks told Fox News. “I hope our letter is an encouragement to him and other people of faith.” READ MORE
